Board of Regents Statement

Sorry if this was already posted -

Board Of Regents Statement
The following statement was released by Board of Regents President David Miles on Thursday:'The speculation about re-alignment of college athletic conferences is understandably a matter of concern right now for the faculty and staff, the students, the fans, alumni and friends of Iowa State University."Today’s announcement by the University of Colorado that it will be leaving the Big 12 Conference to join the Pac 10 Conference is disappointing. Certainly, this change and others that are reportedly being discussed could have a significant, negative impact on Iowa State."The Board of Regents is proud of the athletics program at Iowa State, the professionalism of the administration, the enthusiasm and loyalty of the fans and supporters, and of course, the dedication and achievements of the student athletes. While considerable attention is focused on membership in athletic conferences, this should not overshadow the many accomplishments of our student athletes. For example, Iowa State’s Lisa Koll yesterday recorded a remarkable achievement: her third NCAA championship when she won the 10,000-meter race at the NCAA outdoor championships in Eugene, Oregon. Additionally, Iowa State University led the Big 12 student athlete graduation rate at 79 percent in the latest rankings."Iowa State President Gregory Geoffroy and Athletics Director Jamie Pollard are working diligently to ensure the best possible outcome for Iowa State. This includes talks with other presidents, chancellors and athletics directors, as well as with Governor Culver and members of Iowa’s congressional delegation."The Board of Regents applauds and supports these efforts."

Re: Board of Regents Statement

Yes I did see that buried in another thread. I do feel bad that Lisa Koll has been overshadowed the last few days. I believe she is arguably one of the Top 5 Athletes (Men or Women) that have ever been at Iowa State University EVER; and unarguably the #1 Most Attractive.

Re: Board of Regents Statement

I actually like it.
